The actual ****?
Paddy Power are a bunch of mindless, inconsiderate morons when it comes to advertising, shock horror.
And even if it is Photoshopped, it hasn't exactly paid off for them.

IF it is real, it'll be in an area cleared for demolition anyway, they haven't gone chopping around willy nilly.. In an ideal world we wouldn't chop down trees and burn fossil fuels and have poor children produce items in factories ect but then you wouldn't have paper, cars, buses, trains, clothes, shoes so I don't see what the fuss is about

If it is a site "cleared for demolition" then it's even more of a disaster than a bookmaker cutting down trees to make a sign for football fans. Mindless dickheads...
They are making a statement on this soon apparently

Glad its fake, and to be fair on them, it has gotten people talking about deforestation.

Well, yeah, since all tests of it being photoshopped show that it wasn't, lol, turns out they went to the effort of using 3D modelling, which is pretty in depth for something as small as this, lol.
